What David Jones expects in the 855

David Jones trades on X12 4010 / EDIFACT over AS2. David Jones's 855 follows the standard X12 layout — no partner-specific companion-guide quirks are curated for this document yet. The certified base map covers the standard requirements, and validation still runs against the 855 spec before anything transmits.

How EDISQ maps it

The certified David Jones 855 map loads when you enable the partner — fields auto-map from NetSuite, QuickBooks, Dynamics, and 33 other systems, validation runs against David Jones's spec before transmission, and the sandbox replays David Jones test scenarios until everything passes.

Common rejection reasons

Nearly all 855 rejections trace to reference data, not syntax: identifiers that don't match David Jones's cross-references, echoed fields dropped from the original PO, or timing that misses the program window. EDISQ flags each before David Jones ever sees the document.
